TRIAL PERIOD IS A MAKING PROCESS; KEEP WAITING

LAMENTATIONS 3:17 – 26

When we are faced with trouble that is not the end of the world for us, but we should remember that on planet earth every events has time and season. There are times to wait and there are times to sow as well as times for harvest. But in all these things God still has final say. No matter what you are passing through today always keep it at the back of your mind that a day will come, that you will find solution to that position or situation at hand. So you don’t need to struggle to make it while God has not approved it yet. Wait for his approval which will take place when least expected. We should understand that in whatever we venture our hand to do. God has the final say, irrespective of our struggling. So, dream to put God first and wait for your dramatic turnaround in due season.

LAMENTATION 3:17

(17)      “You deprive me of peace I have forgotten what is good

(18)      So I say: My splendor has perished, as well as my

expectation in Jehovah

(19)      Remember my affliction and my homeless state,

            the wormwood and the bitter poison

(20)      you will surly remember and bow low over me.

(21)      I recall this in my heart; that is why I will show a

            waiting attitude”

This is why we need to wait for God’s approval according to above quoted verses, at the end of His complaint He recalled that he need to wait for God to intervene in that affliction as a child  of God, God will pass you through  training process before handing over or entrusting you with resources. So that the resources doesn’t destroy you, and the key to passing the test of this training is putting God first while you wait.

LAMENTATION 3:22

(22)      “It is because of Jehovah’s loyal love that we have not come

            to our finish

(23)      They are new each morning your faithfulness is abundant

(24)      Jehovah is my share I have said, that is why I will show

awaiting attitude”

We must keep on waiting for that dream, investment, and plans etc. to mature irrespective of odds we encounter in the process. The adage: “The patient dog eats the fattest bone” still remains the notion of today’s message. We should also note that the plans and thought of God towards those that exercised patient waiting for his salvation are blessings and not curses. Look! God must always prove himself faithful at the end.

LAMENTATION 3:25-26

(25)      “Good is Jehovah to the one hoping in him,

to the person who keeps seeking him

(26)      Good it is to wait in silence for the salvation

of Jehovah”
